From the project
UV/VIS Reflection and Transmission Densitometer for Photographic Darkroom Use
The Printalyzer UV/VIS Densitometer is a project whose goal is the creation of an affordable reflection and transmission densitometer for photographic darkroom use.
It differs from the original B&W densitometer product in that it adds a UV measurement channel for alternative processes needs.
This project will use the B&W Printalyzer Densitometer DPD-100 design as its basis, and will make all efforts to share the same mechanical design and components.
